Program Visions (next five years)

Mercy Hospital
Achieve a measurable decrease in the infant and maternal mortality rates in Sierra Leone by providing holistic, community-focused care regardless of ability to pay.  To accomplish this, we will transform Mercy Hospital into a world class center of medical excellence supported by intensive community outreach, a new surgical center, health worker training, and research in maternal and child health.

Child Rescue Center
Transform the existing Child Rescue Center programs into a replicable and sustainable program of excellence designed to gradually repatriate the child survivors of forced labor into nurturing families in local communities.
